Re: [IAC#RG] Fwd: {ICAN} Fwd: [Manushi] Love Jehad -Real Threat or Phobic Fantasy?

Dear Navnith

It is very unfortunate that whenever inclusive efforts are made to
make this group as "INDIA" against corruption, all sorts of spurious
divisive bogeys from BHARAT are raised. If this carries on we
shall seriously have to evaluate our rules.

Before we point fingers at sacred books of another religion, we
(ie. you and I) as Hindus should seriously examine our own scriptures.

I'm sure you will acknowledge that till the 19th century there were
no authentic Hindu texts available in physical form. In 1780's we
were faced with the onslaught of Christian missionaries from USA's
great theological schools - Harvard and Princeton and Yale, the
Serampore printing presses of missionaries like Marshmann and
Carey, systematically demolishing Hinduism and depicting Hinduism
as a vile pagan religion, and converting - first the lower castes
and then even dissolute beef eating Brahman boys high on
liquor, sex with cheap white prostitutes etc.

In 1792 they published "An Enquiry into the Obligations of
Christians to use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens."

At this time the elders of my religion had to step in to stop this
Christian nonsense. firstly we took them on publicly. Then
when the sources of Hinduism were questioned, we
arranged for the first authentic (to the extent possible) recordings
of the 4 Vedas to be set down in writing in ca. 1846. We
embarked on a massive search for authentic versions of
the Vedas. The Bhandarkar Institute Pune where the earliest
versions are available is a component of this constant quest.

What foreigners like Max Muller have mistranslated is based on the
very early versions we arranged and downright forgeries which they
concocted in Germany and Oxford.

So before poking fingers, we should examine ourselves, and this
myth of what passes for Hinduism today. We should also carefully
examine if Hinduism's main rival is Islam or Christianity or both.
